Description
In under an hour we will cover the fundamentals of R programming. The first part of the video will be about understanding WHY we do things in R and then in the second part I will show you HOW to do things in R. We will cover the following topics:
- Installing R & RStudio
- Installing and Loading Packages
- Tour of RStudio
- Basic Maths Calculations in R
- Importing and Exporting Data in R
- Data Structures: Data Frames and Vectors
- Graphs and Data Visualisation
- Create your own Function in R
This course is designed for someone who is new to programming and each video is relatively straightforward. The last video is a bit more challenging as we cover loops within loops. But by the end of this course you will be comfortable with the basics of R and be ready to learn more advanced topics.
If you are one of my Actuarial Students, this course is compulsory.
